65-67 St Andrews Street, Brighton VIC 3186

Built circa 1889, 'Wavertree' is a magnificent Victorian-era home exuding timeless elegance, impeccable craftsmanship, and an exceptional balance of opulence and space.

Nestled beyond a landscape of French-inspired gardens by renowned designer Andrew Stark, this grand 5-bedroom, 4-bathroom family residence (475sqm approx. internally) is enveloped in a wrap-around verandah featuring timber fretwork and original tessellated tiles. Rising from bluestone foundations and sitting atop a glorious 1,178sqm (approx.) of land, 'Wavertree' is one of Middle Brighton's most recognised period properties and was originally owned by Pioneer, James Jamieson.

Upon entry, 'Wavertree' charmingly displays the rich integrity of the Victorian-era detailing. Expertly renovated & maintained, high ceilings, grand proportions and original Baltic floorboards convey a timeless sense of elegance only found in homes of this calibre. Spacious formal living and dining rooms offer limitless flexibility, while the open-plan marble kitchen, comprehensively renovated to suit a modern-day lifestyle, features a suite of high-end appliances including four ovens, three fridge/freezers, three dishwashers and ample storage suited to the needs of a family.

This ready-to-move-in home accommodates the sleeping quarters in style, with incredible views across the gardens & pool. A private master bedroom enjoys a large walk-in robe and luxurious ensuite, and a further three/four oversized bedrooms each feature original period detail & plenty of space for the kids to study, while three renovated bathrooms offer endless comfort for all.

A cleverly designed, modern extension (completed 2021) connects the kitchen to a north-facing dining & lounge area that flows cleverly beyond sliding glass doors to a generous grassed area, BBQ/alfresco, plus a solar and gas heated lap pool & spa. The modern extension also provides a rare, supersized double garage not commonly seen in period homes.

An exceptional opportunity in one of Brighton's most coveted locations, 'Wavertree' sits within moments of Brighton & Firbank Grammar Schools, Brighton Beach, Church & Bay St shopping precincts and much more. This timeless address is a rare gem and the perfect opportunity to secure a Victorian-era home that has it all.
